Just to see how it turns out on my two preferred systems.....
It will infact make little if any real difference. None of them do because they are all based on the same set assumptions

I've done the CART system for quite a few seasons now and I do like it as a system. Given that I now no longer consider a championship representative of anything, I'm swaying back towards favouring a system of consistency rather than one with a greater emphasis on wins, though the current system is fine

The CART system is particularly interesting because it offers the same number of points in total as the current F1 system (101), but there are less points for a win - 1st-2nd is the same ratio as the previous F1 system, but the rest of the positions are effectively worth more than under that system. So it's good for consistency but doesn't totally devalue a win. And gives points to the top 12 which is better than 8 or 10
